Side missions

Side missions are side quests not related to the main storyline. These missions have no special influence on the player's development, but rather on the reputation with the applicant or targets. Some side missions do not have any prerequisites; missions that have prerequisites usually must have completed another mission (main or side), reach a certain level of relationship with an NPC, or have a special item in disposal.

Side missions are generally time sensitive and must be completed within a certain amount of time; these limits range from less than 24 hours to 7 days. Additionally, prior to accepting a mission, the player has a limited amount of time to accept the mission before it disappears indefinitely.

Side missions are displayed on the map with the blue icons .

Side missions in the main chronology[]

Side missions can occur at any point in time, though sometimes side missions trigger during or after completing a main storyline mission or reaching a certain point in time.
